dude are you still close to town??
Large portion of bike swap done. The Nukeproof, with a coil, actually holds my weight and is quite nice. Talking with @Nick, we're going to do a second round parts pillage/swap before selling. It shouldn't impact net price on the Yeti too much, but will get the Nukeproof as nice as we can for negligible cost.
Ha, good to know one's Garmin might just display a "fuck off we're busy" message when you wander off unprepared. Wonder if she demands a refund ? Those things a spendy ya know.Good: Lost hiker asked for help in Colorado. Rescuers told her to ‘hunker down for the night’
Just because you carry a cell phone doesn't mean S&R should put themselves in harms way because you bit off more than you can chew...
I've always asked my loved ones to give me until 12:00 the next day, and I've made that cutoff every time thus far*, no jinx
*TBH there was one time in 1987 when me and a buddy unintentionally overnighted near North Dome in Yosemite after losing the trail, where we may not have made the noon cutoff...
Not always.
Stumbled across a new brewery in the drive home. Beer tastes like crap now, yet I still stopped and purchased a six pack...because new beer.
I also made the mistake of blindly following GPS directions given by my phone to the trail head. They took me to a horse farm way south of where I needed to be. Oh well, no complaints. I mean I general they went the correct direction and I ended up taking some really cool new-to-me windy narrow dirt roads. But yeah next time I'll double check that the end point is correct.
Oh and now that the leaves are changing and whatnot, it's been much easier to spot hawks while driving. Always cool.

The last waltz. Ruth took Wyleigh for a last ride before the new owners pick her up tomorrow. A professional rider is going to compete Wyleigh on the International Professional Level
Decided for a do-over tomorrow on the new gnar trail. Checkers or wreckers. Pics of victory and/or sorry defeat to follow.

Doing laps in my pump track with my daughter makes my heart happy. Well worth the pain in the ass of building it.
